I have to agree with Brian here ... the best success that we've had is to
either use _everything_ from Sun/Oracle (I'm just not used to thinking of
you guys as "Oracle" yet!), or compile _everything_ yourself.  We do the
latter on some systems (for various reasons), but I prefer it when we
can do the former.  Mixing and matching just leads you into trouble
(like the symbol version problems you were encountering).
